    Amicus Curiae


    "You are tempting me."

    "Give it some thought," Bette said. "Consider it an open offer."

    "You’re nothing like you are in court," Tina said.

    "And how am I in court?"

    "Stern. Flamboyant," Tina started. "Stubborn!"

    The last word was definitely a judgement.

    "I stand up for what I believe in!" Bette defended.

    "You’re argumentative and arrogant!"

    "You’re an ivory tower academic with no appreciation for how to function in the real world!"

    "You are frustrated with me!" Tina charged.

    "I am not!" Bette replied. "I’ve given you all the space you’ve asked for!"

    "Fuck it arouses me to fight with you," Tina said. "Why is that?"

    This was a direction Bette did not expect their conversation to take.

    "You’re not accustomed to being challenged," Bette said. Her tone was quite a bit more sedate as she went on to clarify her explanation. "No one questions you because your intellect is so intimidating."

    "You’re not intimidated," Tina said.

    "We first met with me in my element – the courtroom," Bette replied. "If we’d met socially, I’m not sure I would have had the same bravado."

    "Then I’m glad we met where we did," Tina said.

    "I’m thankful we met at all," Bette replied. "I continue to lead a charmed life."

    "Charmed – how so?"

    "Circumstances always seem to conspire to serve my best interests."

    "It’s good you think meeting me serves your interests," Tina replied as she stood from the island. "Can I get you a glass of water?" 

    Telling someone she aroused you wasn’t the best way to keep a relationship professional. Time to get the conversation back to more every day topics.

    "Since you’re up…"

    Tina could see the drinking glasses through the clear cupboard door and retrieved them to fill at the tap before returning to sit down.

    "How was your sleep?" Bette asked. 

    "Great – such a comfortable bed," Tina commented. "And a only a short drive this morning. The commute does get to me some days."

    "Why not move closer? Are you renting or do you own?"

    They were both making a concerted effort to ignore the fact that Tina had openly acknowledged the electricity that flowed between them every time they spoke.

    1. I am so glad that you kept w/canon as far as Bette and Tina are concerned. They have different professions but their conversations are true to form. Just the best.

    2. there’s nothing more satisfying and beautiful than a conversation between two intelligent women, no matter if it’s about politics or their attraction. it’s appealing and captivating all the same :)

    3. WOW!!! What MightyMouse said and another great chapter giving us more insight into our girls, their demeanor, and their interaction with, and between each other. They are becoming more attuned and comfortable with each other the more time they spend together and you show it so beautifully. Of course, the more time spent together the closer they become and less mysterious to each other and find they have more in common than they thought. Since Bette mentioned spending the next four Saturday afternoons together I think they have solved the problem of the five weeks. We know Tina loved that proposal. I had wondered about Bette’s mother and you answered my questions in this chapter. Your writing transports us into their world and it is a wonderful place to be. Thank you for that ability. I do so love this story, I know you can’t tell.lol

    4. WOW. I’m running out of superlatives to describe your writing, jks. What more can I say? That these seven chapters are close to perfection? That I’m relishing every crumb, every morsel of this lovely story. That I heart watching the sparks fly whenever they spar verbally. That I love the way you’ve recreated and re-envisioned the characters of Bette, Tina and most especially Melvin. I’ve smiled from earring to earring while reading your recent posts, jks. This story’s a soothing balm to my dead-tired soul. A thousand times thank you and please write on! Mwah! Mwah! Mwah! =)
